This is the fifth most powerful city in this world and ranked as third richest city in this world.

Every year we spend our summer vacations on some or other destination. This year, as the summer vacation commenced, we started planning for the trip. After a long session of discussion and suggestion, we all agreed on the name of Los Angeles. We heard a lot about this place and eager to visit this city as soon as possible. Almost all the formalities were completed by us, but the main task was still remaining and, that was buying airlines tickets. We had a family of five members and we were interested in buying inexpensive Flight tickets. We had taken entire information about best Flights to Los Angeles like British Airways.  Buying Flight tickets were very time consuming and difficult task so we decided to hire an agent. Agent informed us that few best airlines ply some cheap Flights to Los Angeles, and finally from one of these carriers, we succeeded to buy cheap tickets to Los Angeles.
After a long and hectic journey, we reached this heavenly destination. Our all tiredness fades away as we reached this place. The place was marvelous. The city has both flat and hilly area. Los Angeles has sub tropical Mediterranean climate. This destination gives several places to visit. Peoples consider this place as the best tourist destination where one can get relaxation, entertainment, adventure everything. When we reached there, the airport was crowded, and it took a bit extra time to come out of the airport after completing the formalities. We decided to spend that day in our hotel rooms and had dinner together. The very next day we started our tour.

The city offers several historical places such as Olveera Street, union stations. We visit both places on the first day of our trip. Next day we visit The Getty Center, Museum of contemporary art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Museum of Tolerance, Griffith Park, Exposition Park, Mulholland Drive etc. It was a fantastic place, and we had immense fun during this trip. Apart from these we attend several concerts and conventions which are frequently going in this city.
